This is a popcorn thread......... Hilarious to watch this unfold.....

Metal bumper, plastic, girlie, real truck... Oh well, I drive what I like and am comfortable in, and yet still looks stellar 8 years old.

The 21 I want to drive see how it does, but will I buy one when this one is done? Probably not, The 18-20 seem to be about where the golden area for the last body style. I dont find them near as comfy as the prior, but looks wise they are not bad.

If I had to buy something right now to replace mine, 05-06 yukon denali, or 10-14 esky or denail. That's it in my book for me these days. Both great vehicles, both comfy, and easy to work on.

Engineers keep trying to top things, as they should, some things are just far fetched, and some ideas are not the best also. Its part of engineering, trial and error.

Eh, “my truck/car/cooler/grill/gun is cooler than yours” is the oldest “argument” there is.

But when people obsessively talk about how “masculine” their favorite truck is...well...
